This lesson is the second in a series that looks at why Prohibition failed. This resource looks at the legislation that was introduced as well as the impact on drink related crime, organised crime, bootlegging , illegal bars and brewing.
This resource is primarily aimed at foundation and core students, but also includes an Oxford and Cambridge source based question on usefulness and a pupil mark scheme, which can be used to extend all learners. I have also included a heads and tails mini plenary as well as a thinking skills review triangle at the end to help students assess which was the most significant impact.
The aims of the lesson are:
Theme: Why did Prohibition fail?
Know: What laws were introduced to enforce Prohibition?
Understand: How did people respond to prohibition?
Evaluate: Why what impact did prohibition have on the USA?
Skills: Chronology, Source Evaluation & judgement
What Am I Looking For this lesson?
Identify / Describe – effects of Prohibition on the USA?
Explain – both the legal and social effects of Prohibition on the USA?
Analyse – Begin to make a judgement on why Prohibition failed?
